Stay-At-Home Yoga #1: Staying Strong
Stay-At-Home Yoga #1: Staying Strong
Podcast: 44 min 20 sec
Here is an at-home practice that is suitable for most everyone….
The Podcast / Practice
Welcome to quarantine yoga!! Here’s the plan. Yesterday I quickly noted down a sequence (see document below) and recorded the practice straight through without any edits etc. Try it out and see what you think. If you all are good with this, I should be able to make plenty during this time of quarantine!! Requests are welcomed!!
Sequence: Here below is the sequence noted down prior to recording; that said, I did take the liberty to improv a bit during the recording.
seated breathing / oyster / seated backbend / seated side bend / dandhasana (staff pose) / seated forward fold / seated twist / glut stretch / IT band stretch / table / balancing table / hand to foot / forearm side stand / mini pyramid / low lunge / wide angle child / downward dog / warrior 1 / extended side angle / reverse warrior 2 / triangle / revolved wide angle fold / downdog / plank / dolphin plank / sphinx / makarasana (quad stretch) / cobra pose / child / supine rolls / bound bridge / utksepa mudra / personal time / shavasana / meditation
About the Title: “Staying Strong” denotes that we should all keep fit and active, and at-ease mentally, during this unusual period.

(in a quick minute or so I jotted this down…not very impressive….I know…)
Alright!!! THANK YOU!!! This has a much better chance of keeping us on track than my do-it-yourself plan!!!
However, do NOT feel you have to make an abs or blocks version 😂
Ok – let’s see if it works….
and don’t worry – new abs ones are on the way!!
Thank you so much for this. It worked out well. I’m looking forward to more!
Didn’t you tell me a couple of years ago that there are some full class podcasts available on your site? If that’s correct, you could remind us where we can find them. Recycling works!
Hi Audrey,

To date I have not recorded a live class, other than meditation podcasts that were done live….
I pulled up the 20 minute yoga warm up one today after working in the yard all day…it was perfect. I think a lot of folks might appreciate it if you repost that one.
Great to hear Annie!!
For those interested – here is that podcast…

Anonymous is not much on blog skills 🙂
All good Linda!! (The anonymous comment will be our secret!!)
Glad the podcasts are working!!

Annie’s cousin in Atlanta, Lisa
Hey there Lisa – so great to have you check-in!!
Wonderful hearing from you and all my very best wishes!!
Namaskar….
I cant thank you enuf for all these sessions! I’ve tried to practice on my own and at another studio, with not too good of result🤦♀️. My body aches from not getting what it needs. Oh, also, Finn has been right by my side, 9 am, 3 days a week. I think he likes your soothing voice. He sleeps in kennel the whole hour!!! Looking forward to getting my body back to where it was when I left Maryland. I hope you know how grateful I am to you for taking the time to make these awesome practices available to all. 🙏 Tina
You are most most welcome Tina! That’s what these practices are for and if they are helpful then that is the best news.
I have enjoyed making them and will continue to fill the airwaves – and also increase the sound quality with the help of new gadgets!!
So glad you and Finn are able to practice together!!
You are very much missed around here and I look forward to when you swing by these parts at some point.
Till then – stay well!!!
Just finished Stay at Home Yoga #1 podcast. Wow! Did I ever need that, thanks. Been at home since March 16th, keeping busy with projects and cardio (not enough yoga). Today was feeling very anxious, not now.
Thanks for the podcasts.
